Interesting in how for 40 years he's been watching games, whatever.......YET he cannot quote a SINGLE example of those "horrible hoosier fans".
RIGHT.

Come on now, it's water under the bridge now all...No photo's or actual police reports have been linked to the so called fan behavior before.during or after the IU win.
Only thing I heard was of some so called Model who got knocked down by accident by a IU fan, But she admitted that at least he did help her up and apolgized....
Maybe I was tripping on acid, but I'm pretty sure that the IU student section was chanting "F*** UK" in unison at several points during the game.
Now, I'm not going to get all butt-hurt about it and run to Mommy and Daddy crying that "Those Hoosiers were mean to me!" A lot of UK fans sound like sore losers, which I hate. However, that chant is pretty classy...something for Hoosier Nation to be proud of, no doubt. I understand that some IU admin were trying to get them to stop, to no avail. Stuff happens. But, I can tell you that having been to UK games for years at Rupp and sitting through several rivalry games, I've never heard something to that level chanted in unison by our student section. The worst I've heard is the "S****!" chant with their back turned after each opposing player is announced during starting lineups. That's not exactly classy either, so I'll digress. But I will say that the atmosphere in Rupp for Kentucky-Carolina both before and after the game was pretty cordial. I gave and received ribbing from several wearing powder blue, but it was always in good fun and never nasty. I never saw it nasty either. We'll see how it goes for UK-UL, but honestly I expect the same.
The reports of the taunting, nasty behavior, cars being keyed, etc against visiting UK fans in Bloomington....I have a hard time believing from the general public, but I would not put it past the same students that chose to chant "F*** UK" during the game. Kids do stupid crap. What happens in bars, in my opinion, gets a pass because alcohol is involved. Don't go into bars if you don't want to deal with drunk a-holes. If you choose to, expect some inbred with green teeth in an IU sweatshirt to be a moron after a dozen beers. Tell him thanks and move on. It's as simple as that. I'm sure it happens now and then in Lexington, too.
Overall, I think IU fans (especially the students) overreacted to the win and did not necessarily act like one of basketball's elite programs....but they haven't exactly been on the top of the polls in the last decade either. I think a lot of UK fans acted butt-hurt and hyper-sensitive over some of that negative behavior. I wish all would just shut up and move on! Indiana has a Big-10 to be mediocre in, and UK has an SEC to win for God's sake...LOL

She was a Playboy Model actually....Megan Dills, "Girls of the SEC / 2008" for those of you keeping score at home. Wouldn't you help her up and apologize? I'd offer to carry her to the car and tape her ankle up, by God. My "storm the court" brain would have flipped switches at that point. LMAO
That just proves my hypothesis that all IU fans are homos. (j/k)

She went on national tv tonight to tell her story to Inside Edition. Guess when you are a playboy model, being well known for no talent, you have to milk that 15 minutes of fame like a Kardashian.
